Project Prometheus (Original Setting Superhero Quest)

Reader mode
... I can just imagine Bitter going "I DIDN'T WANT HIM HERE! WHAT DO I DO?!" from here if it's The Hand.

Like, OP Boss of the veil team strolls in, could maybe just wipe out half of our team if their powerful-

Either that or number 3 is the Leviathan... oh no
Edit: Got ninjaed and my hope is restorted-

Also it should be noted that, despite my stressing, SB does kinda operate at least in part on being secret. And now literally every hero group in the city knows about her and how she works, more or less.

Yeah, like I said the other day, even if she lives, her days are counted. Even if the Mysteries try to play damage, Crusade kinda has to go after her given all the witnesses to the clones.

Edit: Nevermind, I got ninja'd.
 
WEll, at least it's not "The Hand raptures her to safety". Though apparently it's still going to cause Complications for us, which I still don't super appreciate given how Complex things already are T_T[

At least we saved Yara, and at least we've got one hell of a powerset lined up for her.

So this Yara build has True Telepathy, Phasewalking and Battle Precognition? Was this the hinted at third synergy?
 
So…
  • Good rolls to start off
  • Nat 20 (you can thank me)
  • The one Nat 1 being saved
  • Something interesting happening to the R-Train
  • Socialite Butterfly taking a huge L
  • Confirmation that we can give Yara THREE SYNERGIES
It's been a good fucking Christmas/New Year.

BTW Soraia was part of a group that provided adfordable medicine that makes her fitting as our healer.

Need to figure out Biokinessis and how to make that into a healing power but I think it would be a fitting power.

I think it would involve Ally Empowerment (obviously) + Clairvoyance to be able to focus the power + Energy Manipulation + Transformation maybe ?
Anyway someone should add the synergies for [Planeswalking] and [Battle Precognition] to one of the Informationals. I should edit my previous Yara plan because oh my holy heck.

She can be even more of a Dreamseer now, considering most of them could see the future.

The 1AP Reality Check was the potentially dangerous one, right?

It depends on a lot. Also, the 1 AP version is the harder version, oddly enough.

There are actually three Reality Checks. 2 with 2AP and 1 with 1 AP. I'm preeeetty sure you're safe from the one with the most dire consequences, but now you're getting the fun one.

Now, this is just my guess, but the spread probably looks something like this:
  • 2 AP, dire: SB takes Yara. SB tries to take over Osanyin using her Yara clone. Crusade's priorities: unknown, may depend on how SB approaches the situation.
  • 2 AP, not-so-dire: Yara gets copied but we manage to save her and take her back with us. Because we have Yara and SB has a clone, Crusade might have some legit concerns over which is the real one, hence the title - there's a need for a Reality Check. Maybe Crusade might even fight back against SB?? Who knows.
  • 1 AP, 'fun': We keep Yara, and SB doesn't get to copy her. The path to taking a lot of Osanyin's money is clear. Because of this, Crusade presumably goes full damage control because they can't let their sworn enemies (us) take control of their backer, Osanyin. The Mysteries might get involved too because of this - they can't let Crusade, their attempt to smear us and force us to reveal Prometheus, lose the momentum they'd just started to build up against us.

I'm now beginning to wonder if that 3 is going to cause too much salt. I'll say if it wasn't for that nat 20 and that you included TRH's scaling, it would be so much worse now it's just going to get weird.

Calling it right now: Interlocutor thought it was slick, but got scaled to and then blasted. So now it's going to be at the QZ.
 
I'd prefer Planeswalking/True Telepathy/Battle Precognition since all three are psychic synergies and I want to go full ham on that.

Although ideally I'd like to learn how to have something like Lantern's scrying.

I like weird. I can live with that.
 
I have a burning question. Bitterman, seeing as Red Huntress's Transformation deal slowly turned her into a battle cat of sorts...

Does Ellie have the possibility of turning into a giant battle-rhinoceros-beetle?
